Filter by:Knowing the fact that the anesthetic substances can alter the immune response during the surgery, the purpose of the study is to evaluate the influence of two general anesthetic techniques - inhalation vs. total intravenous anesthesia on the immune response in patient with colorectal surgery for neoplastic disease, evaluated by the plasma level of the interleukins 6 and 10(IL6, IL10).
Changes of inspiration: expiration ration from 1:2 to 1:1 could improve the arterial oxygenation and respiratory mechanics
This is a phase I/II study of the combination of Guadecitabine (SGI-110) and previously treated metastatic colorectal cancer patients. This study will be conducted in two components. First, patients will be enrolled in a phase I study of SGI-110 combined with irinotecan in a standard 3+3 design. After the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined, patients will subsequently be enrolled in a 2:1 randomized phase II study of SGI-110 and irinotecan versus the standard of care regorafenib or Lonsurf (TAS-102).
The investigators would study about impact of the administration of probiotics in the intestinal mucosa of patients undergoing resection colic, by evaluating cytokine profile by quantitative real time PCR. The investigators believe that patients who use probiotic preoperative would provide cytokine profile less inflammatory than those of the control group.
Colonoscopy aims to investigate the entire colon by advancing the colonoscope tip from the rectum to the cecum, a process called cecal intubation. Cecal intubation may be difficult for different reasons, and features of the colonoscope and the use of imaging devices may influence the success rate. We want to compare the performance of a new colonoscope with novel features including gradual stiffness with that of a colonoscope supplied with a magnetic endoscope imaging (MEI) device. The hypothesis is that the performance of the new instrument is non-inferior to the MEI system.
This is a single-arm, Simon 2-stage, phase 2 clinical study conducted in subjects with advanced or metastatic colorectal cancer who have previously received ≥ 1 prior line of systemic therapies and are resistant to EGFR inhibitor (cetuximab or panitumumab). This trial will be conducted to determine objective response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS) and overall-survival (OS) of cetuximab plus tivantinib in patients with wild-type KRAS CRC that is resistant to anti-EGFR antibody treatment (cetuximab or panitumumab) and shows overexpression of cMET.
This is a pilot study to evaluate the safety of a vaccine that consists of an alphavirus replicon (VRP) encoding the protein (CEA) that has been found to be associated with cancers such as colon cancer in patients that have stage III colon cancer. We will also evaluate the patient immune response to the vaccine.
This study involves 3 phases that modifies current Interactive Preventative Health Record-Colorectal Cancer Screening (IPHR-CRCS) modules to address each patient's individual colorectal cancer screening (CRCS) knowledge, attitudes, preferences, and test-specific barriers. The study will engage patients, ages 50-75 years who are non-adherent to CRCS, to assess their CRCS test preferences and corresponding test-specific barriers in "real time". Based on patient characteristics (e.g. age, personal and family history, physician CRCS recommendation, CRCS test preferences, top test-specific barriers), tailored messages/videos will appear in the pop-up screens to address/reduce the top patient-reported, test-specific CRCS barriers while incorporating an action plan for CRCS adherence. The investigators hypothesize that modifying the IPHR-CRCS module to address each patient's individual CRCS knowledge, attitudes, preferences, and test-specific barriers will further increase CRCS.
Primary Objective: To assess efficacy aflibercept + FOLFIRI by objective response rate (ORR) Secondary Objective: To assess the following: - safety profile - progression free survival (PFS) - overall survival (OS) - pharmacokinetics (PK) - immunogenicity
Superficial rectal tumors could be removed by ESD with two major advantages showed by the literature: high rate of monobloc resection and R0 resection. Hence, recurrence rate was lower than ERM therapy. This technique is actually performed routinely in Japan and experience is limited in Europe, with few data in the literature. This study is suggested to patients with superficial medium or distal rectal tumors. The lesion was identified and demarcated using white-light endoscopy, magnifying endoscopy, and chromoendoscopy. Then, marking around the lesions was performed. Local injection was made using injection needle, and then mucosal incision was performed around the lesion using endo-knives. Submucosal dissection was performed using endo-knives. Hemostasis and vessel coagulation were practiced using primary hemostatic forceps during the procedure. Follow-up is one year. For lesion with invasive carcinoma (vessel and lymphatic involvement, undifferentiated, free margin less than 1 mm), a surgical resection is performed. All the patients have an endoscopic control 3 months after ESD (rectosigmoidoscopy with biopsies): - For complete resection, an endoscopic control was performed at 1 year. - For incomplete resection, another endoscopic therapy was attempted (EMR) an endoscopic control was performed at 1 year. At one year, patient with incomplete resection have a surgical resection.
